That's 3:21:16 marathon pace. Must have just been relaxing.

It was windy, and he held back a bit because of this week's marathon. Considering that, it's actually quite impressive that he won by over six minutes!

Thanks for writing.
I'm wondering if we should shut the thread or make it so only
registered users can posts. I think the poster you are referencing is
saying they weren't trying to reveal anything personally about Mike
they were just trying to show the IP edit was done by him.
Do you think we should shut the thread? There are like 80 posts in the
last few hours. I can't believe it has that much interest.

Thank you Weldon.
I for one would prefer there to be registered users only on this thread. I saw your post and I appreciate you asking others to keep families out of this. I think that there are some legit posters who are actually doing some good things with respect to his Rossi's cheating.
However, if the thread is locked for registered users only, then I would very much hope tat "LMR" is not allowed to post here anymore. He previously used the registered name "LoserMikeRossi", and he has self-identified as Kenneth Stillman. Here are just a couple of reasons why I think he needs to be banned:
He did in fact publish intimate knowledge of Mike's wife.
With respect to "LMR" defending himself, I am not sure of which post you are referring to, but I do understand that he may have been trying to say the source of the wiki edit was Mike.
The part that bothered me was that he mentioned it may have been posted from the train station where Mike's wife goes to commute to her job, and named her place of work. However, there is no way that the information he was describing could have been narrowed down that precisely with the IP address GregTR found from the Wiki edit.
GregTR (who is an IT specialist I believe) said that the IP corresponded to a place near where Mike lives (a multi-mile radius), but not exactly where. Only somebody with personal knowledge of the wife's commuting route could say for certain that is was at that train station. GregTR can speak to this in more detail, but the poster LMR later showed he had no understanding of internet protocols.
In other words, I believe that the poster LMR had intimate knowledge of a private person's movements and published them. He attempted to backtrack by later saying it was publicly accessible, but didn't realize this was not possible.
Other issues related to this poster have disturbed the LR community.
Most importantly, LMR has become increasingly unstable and obsessed with Mike himself. He admits to not caring about running, has personally received a cease & desist letter from Mike's attorney for trying to unfairly compete with Mike's business, and went on to say some pretty offensive things about Nazis etc. Gatorade & Vodka and others can testify to this.
Sorry for being long-winded. I appreciate your concern and your responsiveness on this issue, and just want to say I really enjoy LR.

Hi Weldon,
Just wanted to follow up and let you know that I've read the posts since you reached out to the group yesterday. After reading pages 667 and on, I think the poster "LMR" has made it clear he did not obtain that personal information about Mike's family using easily accessible means. GregTR explained why. I think that a lot of the other regular posters have echoed the sentiment that he is mentally unstable and getting worse.
Anyways, I just wanted to thank you for looking at the situation and hopefully there can be something done to prevent this from progressing. Honestly, I'd rather see the thread locked rather than watch this person spiral out of control, but hopefully it won't come to that.
Regardless, I'm going to take a break from reading this thread for an extended period of time. I hope Rossi take you up on your offer and fails miserably.
Looking forward to the upcoming World's coverage btw.
Cheers.
---------------------
I am pretty much done with this. I get it. Some of you just don't want me here. Sorry you took things seriously.
Best of luck everybody.
For better or for worse, it looks like we know who the "anonymous poster" was and got the thread locked down for registered names only.
While I think they should have just banned LMR, I also preferred it before when it was just crazy unregistered names. At least now we can kinda guess who is who.
SaraB and Ken are back everybody.
Yay?

I know he's been just itching to post here again, and I have to give him credit, he was sober for much longer than I anticipated. But now he let a drop of vodka in his throat. Feels good huh Ken? I tried to relay your tweets so that you didn't feel compelled to come on here and recorrupt the thread. Let's keep it that way ok? You stay away and I repost some of your tweets here. Ok deal

Good job, Ken. This is your most most of intelligent post ever. You should go out on a high note by never posting again.
Unless Mike's AOL attorney contacts you again. When that happens we want to hear all about it.

Impressive? There's a 70 year old woman who could have beaten him by 2 minutes.

Oh well, that's letsrun for you. Even I, as the gentle voice of reason, feel sometimes that not everyone here fully appreciates me.
On the other hand, I am just a tad too sensitive for the internet, and probably just imagine negative feelings towards me from some posters.

Of all the things this thread has gotten to the bottom of, I'm surprised how little attention we've given to how this video was made. Clearly, someone other than Rossi was filming this thing while on the course, and more than once, this person was inside the barriers and filming runners other than Rossi. At minimum, he or she was being a total nuisance, and certainly they had absolutely no justified reason for being on the course that day. I'm also doubting this person ran the entire course to film this nonsense, so a car had to be nearby.... Many pages ago, someone posted that Rossi obtained a press pass to access the course. If true, why in the world would the BAA, after the bombing no less, grant this privilege to some one-day-a-week disc jockey and wedding DJ? If Rossi didn't obtain permission, then DQ him for pulling this stunt, or can we all bring our personal cameraman along?

Finisher Medal - I hope that you're not leaving because of what bored troLLer wrote, as he's the dickhead who's been trolling bored troller's account and everything that he posts on this thread is pure idiocy.
Didn't troLLer start capitalizing the LL so it couldn't be confused with the lowercase ii?
I'm not saying that it wasn't a troll, but I remember them bickering over the capitalization.
Still can't believe Mike ran a ~24 min 5k and used a fake name. Did he think we wouldn't find out?
'bored troLLer' is an impostor, oxygen and handle thief and cheat. You're right FBM he's a dickhead and posts pure idiocy.
'finisher medal' please don't leave, especially on account of him.

If Mike and Ken go to court or get in a fist fight, we will find out about it on here, right? Pretty sure we've got a few PA folks reading this thread

Mike has gone Ken on Cecily Tynan. Says:
""No shortcuts" applies to stealing husbands too. Teach that to your children."
Calling Cecily a "husband stealer" and "ho" is old hat for him, but then:
"Luke...who is your father? "
Cecily has a son named Luke. So yes, Mike is tweeting to Cecily's 9 year old son and asking him who is father really is.
Stay classy Mike.

Are you serious? I for one can do without his lame phantasies...
Couple of quotes from "finisher medal" from the last few weeks:
I see Mike let you get out of his basement fvck sessions!
Why did you leave out the part where you Mike and Ken had a threeway in a porta potty?
Oh so we are just supposed to forget when you said you and Mike 69ed in the portapotty?
But seriously Ken and you also have also hooked up in the past, but it seems you've sided with Mike.
Can't believe you admit to fcking these guys.

You have posted evidence of Mike Rossi running a 3:11 marathon? I would really be interested in seeing your evidence. That is also a pretty serious allegation. Can you back up your claim of deleting evidence? Most of this thread is pretty ridiculous, but at its core the question is: did this guy cheated to get into Boston.
I am not Mike, Ken or anyone with any sort of vested interest in this saga.
I am interested in the Rossi video from Boston, because that may shed light on how Kip Litton cheated when he ran Boston. I am also interested in how this challenge will pan out.
I have yet to see anything about Mike Rossi that can be considered redeemable. He seems like an all around jacka**, and there is nothing wrong with that. He has brought all of this on himself.
I think he cheated, but if you have evidence he didn't then post it.

In fairness although I think you are an idiot those quotes of Finisher Medal don't suggest to me he will be missed.
What evidence have you posted that got deleted ? Was it deleted as a side-effect of libellous stuff being deleted ?
This is a fairly tedious game but you know there is no evidence at all of Rossi on the VIA course other than at the very start and finish.

Right. And his constant use of the word "retard" was really upsetting. I hope he keeps his word and stays away. But I'm sure he won't.

Mike is so bitter and envious. Look at her Twitter account, what do you see? Nothing but praise from other people and positive messages from her. What you don't see are any tweets about Mike. She responded to the LRC article once and Mike just absolutely lost it. He became so defensive and full of anger and he's obviously still very very butt hurt. Now look at his account and all you see are personal childish attacks directed at her and her kids and every single other post has a "look at me" spin. Mike, she's on television everyday and she's a much faster runner than you'll ever be. She's a real professional with a real media job. From what I can tell the woman is also super humble and good looking. Plus she's got 42,000 followers. You can't touch any of that, you're just making yourself look more stupid each time you talk from your a$$. You're slow and a not even a has-been when it comes to running, you just suck. Maybe you should be working on your fitness to run that 3:11 again and show the world you can be do what you claimed. Until then, it would suit you well to stay in your little corner and shut your nasty DJ trap.
